Agitators
Chemineer agitators include top, side, and bottom entering units for use in a variety of applications from small pilot scale to large production units. Products include right angle and parallel shaft units, gear reduced, direct drive, and air driven designs. Agitators can be mounted on beams/channels, clamp mounted to the tank side, or flange mounted to the vessel with a variety of sealing options.

Impellers
If there were only one mixing job to do, only one impeller would be required. However, there is a very wide range of problems in agitation, and the best impeller for one application may not be the best impeller for another. The descriptions and discussions below are intended as a guide for impeller selection. Relative impeller sizes are compared to the P4 at equal horsepower and equal speed.
-
Auxiliaries
Auxiliary devices for agitators are system specific and include mechanical seals, seal lubrication systems, gearbox monitoring devices such as vibration and temperature, steady bearings for internal shafting, and gearbox oil filtration systems.
Prochem

Prochem MD Series Mixers
The MD Mixer's modular design, featuring innovative shaft bearing cartridges, allows longer operating runs between maintenance periods. Routine maintenance and overhauls can be performed without draining the tank or removing the mixer. -
Prochem PB Series Mixers
Prochem® PB Series Mixers combine the proven features of the MD Series with the advantages of a pillow block bearing design. You get truly efficient fluid processing plus maximum simplicity of maintenance. -
Prochem VM Series Mixers
Prochem VM Turbine agitators offer versatility and performance for optimum results regardless of the fluid being processed. The VM Series agitators are ideal for applications requiring high output speeds at medium torques. -
Maxflo WSE
A high efficiency, advanced side-entering hydrofoil impeller that produces maximum pumping action. It has more cavitation resistance than other designs through effective hydrodynamic design. -
Maxflow Mark II & III Impellers
High efficiency, high solidity impellers for use in turbulent side entering applications. They are especially effective for fluids possessing a yield value, such as paper stock. The high solidity permits operation nearer the boiling point without cavitation.
Kenics

KM Mixers
In all Kenics® KM Series Static Mixers, a patented helical mixing element directs the flow of material radially toward the pipe walls and back to the center. Additional velocity reversal and flow division results from combining alternating right- and left-hand elements, thus increasing mixing efficiency. All material is continuously and completely mixed, eliminating radial gradients in temperature, velocity and material composition. -
KMX-V Mixers
For demanding mixing applications, such as those involving fluids with widely disparate viscosities or volume ratios, the common limiting factor in static mixer design is the allowable mixer length. The KMX was patented in 2002 and enhanced in 2012 to handle difficult laminar flow mixing applications. Specifically the mixer is intended for extreme viscosity and volumetric ratios. -
HEV Mixers
The patented tab geometry of the Kenics® HEV Static Mixer maximizes the conversion of turbulent energy into efficient mixing for a variety of line shapes and sizes. The mixing elements take advantage of the naturally occurring vortices induced by the element edges to produce complete stream uniformity. -
UltraTab
UltraTab mixers provide rapid mixing in short distances common in water treatment, desalinization plants, and chemical processing applications. A low pressure drop through the mixer provides energy savings to the process. -
WVM Mixers
The WVM mixers consist of a simple wall additive injection point, a pre-distribution tab immediately downstream of the injection point and banks of trapezoidal shaped mixing elements. The number of banks of mixing elements varies depending on the mixture quality required for the process. The dimensions, angle of attack and spacing of the trapezoidal mixing elements varies between the WVM models A, B and C. The pre-distribution tab and the injection point design are the same for all WVM models. -
Heat Exchangers
Kenics® Static Mixer technology, available exclusively in Kenics® Heat Exchangers, offers the highest available coefficients for fast, uniform heat transfer. Capable of reliable operation in a wide range of process applications, including those in the polymer, plastic, and food and beverage industries, Kenics Heat Exchangers require less space, less energy and less residence time than standard designs.
Greerco

Pipeline Mixers
Greerco® Pipeline Mixers are designed for in-line continuous high-speed, high-shear homogenizing, mixing, emulsifying and rapid dispersing. The Pipeline Mixer offers several mixing heads, each having the ability to handle a range of mixing applications. -
Homogenizer
Greerco® Homogenizers from Chemineer are high-speed, high-shear batch mixers ideal for fast blending and homogenizing of materials through a wide range of viscosities. -
Colloid Mill
Greerco® Colloid Mills are highly efficient, in-line, processing units specifically designed to disperse solids and/or liquids into a carrying vehicle rapidly and uniformly. Any emulsion or suspension - liquids in liquids or solids in liquids - can be reproduced repeatedly with unvarying particle-size accuracy and distribution. Greerco Colloid Mills produce stable emulsions to the submicron range.
